Onimusha 3 Demon Siege

Onimusha 3 Demon Siege

Publisher: Capcom

Developer: Capcom

Genre: Action Adventure

Once this game is booted up on your PS2, prepare to enjoy one of the best intro cut scenes of all time. The new Onimusha CG graphics are so amazing that most of the PS2 fans who play it will be saying “Ninja Who”. The CG starts out with amazing details, we get to watch very cool fights ninja style. As you start to play the game you will start playing in two different locations and time. Our hero from the first game is transported into modern Paris, and continues his fight with evil. While newcomer French actor Jack is teleported to ancient Japan, and is forced to work with Samonoske to fight the Gemna. The game play is actually quite fun and easy to get into. The puzzles are an easy challenge and the bosses put you on the edge, where you will have to come up with the right strategy and timing to beat them.

An irritating part of the game might be the camera angles. At certain points of the game I was stuck for days and just accidentally opened a door that didn’t appear to be there, and I wasn’t stuck anymore. When playing the game I would say you need nerves of steel to bare the unbearable voice acting. I just have one question for Capcom, Why are the people in both France and Japan talking in English — as if they were in a low budget horror flick?

Score: 7.5
